Dupe: Revlon Soft Nude vs. MAC Creme d’ Nude

MAC Creme d' Nude Dupe

Revlon’s ‘Soft Nude’ is a well known dupe for MAC’s ‘Creme d’ Nude’. In the containers, these two colors do look very similar, but when applied to the lips, I really don’t see them as dupes at all. Being a loyal and somewhat obsessed MAC fan, I will make sure to keep this comparison post as unbiased as possible. Let’s begin this battle of drugstore vs. high end nude lipsticks!

Review: Essie’s “Leading Lady”

Essie Leading Lady Nail Polish

As I mentioned in a previous review of Essie’s “Butler Please,” the other color I love in their Winter 2012 collection is “Leading Lady.” This color reminds me of Dorothy’s shoes from The Wizard of Oz and just Christmas time in general. I already can’t wait to paint my nails again with this color in December.  Continue reading “Review: Essie’s “Leading Lady””
